That worked like a charm! Thanks, Ian. I replaced the link spec like so:

*link:
-L/home/sjackman/.linuxbrew/lib -rpath /home/sjackman/.linuxbrew/lib
--dynamic-linker /home/sjackman/.linuxbrew/lib/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2

How do I remove the following four directories from the library search
path, while still retaining the $prefix/lib and $prefix/lib/gcc/*
directories?

/lib64 /usr/lib64 /lib /usr/lib

Thanks again,
Shaun
